Liu to Western Queens: Go Suck on Truck Fumes!

Mr. Liu also blames Mayor Bloomberg for holding up the construction of a cross-harbor freight tunnel...The proposed tunnel would connect New Jersey to Long Island and bring freight beneath the New York Harbor, thus moving it off the crowded city streets. However, the tunnel has yet to move past the planning stages.

"Mayor Bloomberg supported it until one of his base neighborhoods in Queens didn't. He did an about-face as his election came near," Mr. Liu said.

So Johnny is fighting for Manhattanites to breathe cleaner air and experience less traffic while western Queens would get more trucks, pollution and gridlock. It explains the Manhattan fundraiser last week.

Just FYI for Johnny: Five Queens neighborhoods along with several in Brooklyn oppose the Cross Harbor plan. Just ask your council cohorts Simcha and Dennis...

Johnny, I thought you were smarter than this. Plans that take truck pollition from your back yard and throw it in somebody else's aren't solutions. Not what I'd expect from someone who so obviously aspires to win a higher office.

How about we re-design cross harbor so that the main truck terminal is in Flushing - then see what Johnny has to say about it.

Johnny Liu; Aren't election campaigns terrific? They help focus a candidate's mind on what the taxpaying voters want. Elections are not the opportunity for the likes of you to jam moronic ideas down the taxpayers' throats.

So Bloomberg "saw the light" and opposed the "Tunnel to Save Manhattan" during his campaign?

And, according to you, Liu, that's somehow wrong?

Now that you've announced you're all for killing Queens to save Manhattan, watch your numbers go into the crapper. The Queens Crapper, at that!

Why your neighborhood is full of Queens Crap

"The difference between dishonest and honest graft: for dishonest graft one worked solely for one's own interests, while for honest graft one pursued the interests of one's party, one's state, and one's personal interests all together." - George Washington Plunkitt
